Its that time of the year when you get Mangoes in abundance everywhere. Streets are filled with hawkers selling the King of fruits. In Chennai, you get so many varieties of mangoes which i have never heard of.
Eating mangoes sometimes becomes little messy so Aamras is a great idea to have this irresistible fruit
This dish is popular among the people of Gujarat, Rajhasthan. Gujarati's love having this wid hot Pooris.
Aamras can be both eaten as a dessert or as a main course dish.

Toss it, dress it, season it, eat it. Things cant get simpler than this. Salads are one of kitchen's little miracles that pack taste and health in equal measures.
So everyday I try to incorporate something new in my salads which can easily break away the monotony.
So i used two of the most refreshing ingredients of summers cucumber & pineapple.

In summers u always wish to eat something light especially in the evenings after a long day of work and heat. So salads are good for your appetite and makes u feel fresh and energetic. Pomegranate is a fruit which is little time consuming when it comes to peeling. But when it is done it tastes great. It is sometimes boring to eat the pomegranate just like that so I incorporated this fruit in a salad and it tasted superb.

Whenever I make Vada pav at home, it makes me remember those days when we had gone to Mahablaeshwar from Mumbai by road. The road journey was great as the express highway made the time less and more pleasurable. On our way we had stopped on this eating joint which serve awesome vada pavs. Vada pavs are the staple food of the people of Maharashtra as it is available in every gali of any city and it is sold by all the street hawkers as well some posh eating joints. It is served with a chutney made up of garlic, shredded coconut, tamarind pulp. its a dry chutney.

My interest in cooking is making me try different recipes everyday. My husband has to bear the brunt always but he enjoys it the most.. (I think so). I just yearn for the compliments that he gives me after every dish. He is my best Critic.

So one evening wanted to experiment some thing with Tortilla wrap that I purchased from a local Grocery store.
After thinking a lot I came up with this superb recipe of Quesadillas which is a Mexican dish made with cheese and vegetables. You can even add Ur favourite Chicken into it.
Instead of using the ready made wrap you can make the same at home also.

Monday evening, and I was still unaware as to what to make for my husband for quick and easy starter along with the drinks. I fiddled in my refrigerator to find out that magical ingredient tat will solve my purpose. and here i came across the most versatile and healthy bean :"chickpea" or most commonly known as safed chole in the Indian Household. Rich in protein and tastes wonderful.
I decided on to make a salad out of it, which is both healthy and tasty and will surely be a perfect starter too...
The recipe made up of fresh ingredients and requires no cooking at all.
